Aim: To help reduce stigma surrounding suicide and improve community awareness & understanding of the bereavement experience

Postvention Australia is launching a series of monthly webinars between December 2020 and September 2021. The Building Hope Together Webinar Series is funded by the NSW Ministry of Health as part of their Towards Zero Suicides Initiatives to better support those impacted by suicide. The NSW Post-Suicide Support Webinar Series will bring together people bereaved, peer and lived experience workers, health and frontline workers, professionals, researchers and experts to discuss various postvention topics. There will be 9 subsequent webinars occurring monthly until September 2021.

The topic of the launch is the impact of COVID-19 on suicide bereavement, recognising the increased isolation and negative impact on mental health that the bereaved already experience. The sharing of lived experience stories will be part of each webinar, being a source of both healing and increasing understanding of the bereavement journey.

The Webinar Series aims to:

  • promote networking, education and training;
  • provide access to current research, innovative counselling practice, a diverse range of suicide bereavement group models and other programs;
  • to support those bereaved by suicide;
  • and to advance the body of knowledge in suicide postvention with the aim of reducing the incidence of suicide.
